Tweenies is a British children's animatronic puppet series which debuted in 1998.

Like other children's shows in rotation, it aimed to entertain as well as educate children about various life and social skills using songs, stories and the like. However, unlike some of its contemporaries , the characters spoke in a discernable language and often directly interacted with the "outside world". The show revolved around the adventures of four young children in a daycare centre, with their two adult guardians and two dogs (who were in care of the centre). It enjoyed phenomenal success both inside and outside the UK, spawning no less than five top-twenty hits from spinoff records and merchandising that sold by the bucketload . In the U.S., it aired for a while on Noggin, before it became Nick Jr. . The series proper ended in 2003, but home video sales, reruns and large-scale live tours helped sustain the series' popularity for the remainder of the Turn of the Millennium . In fact, the show remains popular enough to continue having re-runs, nearly 20 years after its first episode debuted. The main characters in the series included: Bella - at five years old, she was the oldest in the group and the default leader.

However, this also meant she was the one with the biggest sense of entitlement. Bossy and argumentative, she was the series' main source of conflict, though Milo seemed to be her main sparring partner. There were numerous episodes where she learnt a valuable lesson by the end, but this of course was forgotten by the next episode . Milo - despite his purple skin, it was made clear that he was meant to be the token black kid in the group. He was also the daycare's resident "jokester", often making puns and playing tricks on his friends. Fizz - the Girly Girl to Bella's tomboy , taking an active interest in anything related to femininity, including the colour pink . Her introverted and shy nature provided a contrast to her three loud and outgoing friends, and she was often seen playing by herself or reading a book. It was hinted throughout the series that she had a crush on Milo. For some reason, whenever she was scared, shocked, angry or upset, her eyes would often spin or shake vigorously . Jake - at three years old, he was the youngest in the group, and therefore needed one of the other three to explain to him what they were doing.

He had a superhero alter-ego which he used to explore his fantasies, and expressed a strong interest in "masculine" things such as motor cars and football. However, he had a tendency to cry a lot, leading to the others having to comfort him every so often. He also sported an interesting-looking hairstyle that resembled a mohawk. Max - the co-owner of the daycare centre and the Tweenies's trusted friend. He would accompany the group whenever they went "outside", and would frequently join in their activities. Judy - the other co-owner of the centre, and a mother figure to the group. Like Max, she would take the group outside the premises every so often. Doodles - the centre's resident dog. He had a positive relationship with everyone in the centre, but Jake was especially attached to him. Izzles - the centre's other dog, who was Doodles' Distaff Counterpart . She was introduced towards the end of the show's run . The centre also had a special "Tweenie Clock" that, when pressed by a character, would dictate which segment would come next in each episode. The segments included: Story Time - Max or Judy would read a story to the four children and dogs.

To the viewer, this would be an animated interstitial. Messy Time - the four kids would partake in some art or craft activity. Song Time - the characters would sing a song, either relating to the main theme or plot of the episode or a "standard" nursery rhyme. Telly Time - the gang would do something relating to technology. News Time - the gang would report on their experiences gathered from the episode . Tweenies | CBBC on Choice Wikia | Fandom powered by Wikia CBBC on Choice Wikia Tweenies is a British children's television programme, originally broadcast on the BBC 's CBBC programming block. Episodes of the programme have also been repeated on the CBeebies channel since 2002. Contents Edit The idea for the programme came from Iain Lauchlan , Kyle Cash and Will Brenton , a pair with a track record of being involved in BBC children's programming. Together with Karl Woolley and Helen Cadwallader they set up [Tell-Tale Productions] at Elstree Film Studios in Hertfordshire founded 1964.

Iain Lauchlan was strands before forming their own production companies Tell-Tale Productions and, more recently, Wish Films/DHX Media Its a Small World (TV Series 1964) on ATV Midlands A Hard Day's Night on BFI [1] on BFI Its a Small World 2 (TV Series 1966) ATV Midlands [2] on New Line Cimera Its a Small World (TV Series 1968) on ATV Midlands Its a Small World final (TV Series 1970) on ATV Midlands, ORTF and ARD Thunderbirds (TV Series 1972-1980,1984-1987) on BBC1 (1972-1980),BBC2,FR3 and ZDF (1984-1987) Fun Song Factory on Abbey Broadcasting Co (1994-1997),GMTV (1998) and CITV (2004-2006) series) on BBC2 (2003-2006) and [3] on BBC1 (2005) <p style="margin-top

Animation for the show was produced by A Productions, an animation studio based in Bristol , England, with Ealing Animation providing some animation in a few early episodes. Computer animation for the series was provided by Clockwork Digital, with Ben Mars animating Mungo, the computer creature who appears in some later episodes. The program is no longer in production, although merchandise can still be bought from retailers, and DVDs of the programme are also available. The characters are well developed and children are able to predict what their responses might be. The mixture of story, song and creative activity provides excellent opportunities for children to learn through play. Music plays an important part in the programme and children are encouraged to join in with songs and actions. The programme is set in a playschool attended by the four Tweenies themselves: Bella, Milo, Fizz and the youngest, Jake. They are in the care of two adults, Max and Judy, and two dogs - Doodles & Izzles.

The show includes a "Tweenie Clock", with five circular lights arranged in a pentagonal shape with the lights denoting "News Time" (Circle Time in USA) - Orange, "Messy Time" - Blue, "Song Time" - Yellow, "Telly Time" (Video Time in USA) - Green and "Story Time" - Red. "Surprise Time" is a special time determined when all five lights glow. A button at the centre of the clock (Purple) is pressed to select the activity that will be undertaken next. It is currently being shown on CBeebies , the BBC's channel for young children. Like a number of other CBeebies programmes, a live stage version of the show has toured in the UK. The most recent tour, Top of the Tots, toured the British Isles during 2009, the series' 10th anniversary. In addition, the tour also played several shows in Hong Kong in late September and early October 2009. The Tweenies are also regulars on the annual CBeebies Live tours around the British Isles.

Between 2003 and 2005, there was also a live version of Tweenies shown regularly at Alton Towers in the Cred Street section aimed at younger children, which was removed in favour of Bob the Builder. In 2000, Tweenies won two awards: Best PreSchool Educational Program and Best Live Action PreSchool Programme. The original prototypes for the Tweenies characters were designed by Sally Preisig of Mimics Productions; they were later re-scaled into two sizes for the characters shown on the series. In addition, Preisig also designed the character costumes and was co-constructor/developer for the Tweenies' full-size puppets. The costume fabric comes from the UK and was imported and dyed into their present colours; it is about the same thickness as fleece jumpers. On 20 January 2013, the programme caused controversy after the 2001 episode titled "Favourite Songs", [1 ] featuring a skit of Max dressed and acting like BBC personality Jimmy Savile , (who after his death was implicated for sex and abuse crimes against children and teens on BBC grounds ), was broadcast on CBeebies at 8:40 am.

[2 ] The BBC announced that "Favourite Songs" would permanently be removed from rotation and published an apology. [3 ] Due to this incident The Tweenies was aired on CBeebies for a further week and then taken off air. The final episode to air was the 264th, titled "Digger", on 1 February 2013. The series returned on 3 June 2013, resuming with the 261st episode, "No", Characters Edit The Tweenies consist of Bella, Milo, Fizz, Jake, Doodles, Izzles, Max, Judy, and are sometimes joined by Max's sister Polly. Other characters have appeared occasionally, including Milo's Uncle Mickey, Jake's mother, Fizz's father and Bella's Granny. There have also been several animated characters. All of the four main characters appeared in the first episode Tweenie Band, which was filmed in 1998 at Elstree Studios & aired on 6 September 1999. The Tweenies are played by one set of actors, while the voices are provided by other actors.

"Tweenies" Reviews & Ratings - IMDb IMDb trailers and videos full cast and crew trivia official sites memorable quotes Overview 4 out of 5 people found the following review useful: Kids love this from England 29 November 2004 My children are both avid Tweenie watchers, they really relate to the characters, especially Bella and Fizz as my children are both girls. We have quite a few videos and they have all been watched over and over again, the Christmas one is a favourite. We also have a bit of a star where we live, as the guy that plays Doodles lives in our village. The show itself is mainly aimed at the under-5's, playschool/nursery age children, but many many older children enjoy it too, they like to follow Bella, Milo, Fizz and Jake through their day at The Tweenies, my kids really love it when they go out and about, they also enjoy the stories that Max tells. The Play safe with the Tweenies episodes were also a really good idea. Was the above review useful to you?

A glittering gem from Swinton, Rotherham, England 14 November 2014 Ahh, this show. Now, I have good memories watching this. It had almost everything good that you need in order to have a memorable and outstanding show: insightful and varied stories; colourful characters; and its gimmicks that it tried to go for were always spot on. In fact, they even made a spin-off of this back in the day, which was focused more on morals rather than interesting plots. It's somewhat sad that Tweenies ended, but you can't have everything in this world. I can barely remember some of its episodes, so I can't really go into much detail about those. Basically though, it's about four kids which go to a play-school run by a couple called Max and Judy (can you imagine anything like that in real life?) and their adventures. The episodes mainly focused on everyday things, and most of the time pulled it off quite effectively! This may be no Doctor Who, but is any kids show? Was the above review useful to you?

Better than Barney and friends from United Kingdom 10 May 2010 Although I haven't seen Tweenies for about 3 years now, I remember really liking it. It is definitely not the best TV show ever, but it is not the worst either. As the title of my review indicates, Tweenies is better than Barney and friends, which I loved as a kid but now I dislike, finding it childish and annoying. As far as educational programmes go, this is for me one of the better ones, not as good as Pingu, Tots TV or Rosie and Jim, but in my opinion it is better than Barney and Dora the Explorer. The story lines can get a bit predictable, with some moments of cheesy but mostly amusing dialogue, but what I did like were the colourful production values, the catchy theme tune and the educational value that is almost certainly there(ie. what colour goes with what). The songs are simple but surprisingly memorable, and do one thing right that Barney did not, they weren't annoying. And I liked the characters, Bella is bossy a lot of the time, but she has a heart as well, Milo is quite cool as is Jake and Fizz is someone who my siblings and I looked up to.

I also liked Max, he was wise and kind like my grandfather, but my personal favourite was the dog Doodles, he was funny and cute. I also liked the stories that Max read, and in terms of episodes the Christmas episode and the play safe episodes are definite standouts. Overall, this is not a bad show, kids will love it and I think adults may as well. I have friends with four children who prefer Tweenies over TeleTubbies and Balamory, so that is something. 7/10 Bethany Cox Was the above review useful to you? 1 out of 2 people found the following review useful: The Tweenies are amazing!!!!! from England 24 June 2002 I am 15 and think the Tweenies is the best TV show ever.
